The ability to build a family on your own terms is a fundamental right. Reproductive freedom means having the power to decide if, when, and how to build a family and access the care needed to make those choices safely and confidently.

Everyone deserves reproductive freedom, and we're expanding access to comprehensive reproductive health education so that future providers are trained to expand reproductive healthcare. 💜

Abortion care is health care, and future physicians deserve the skills to provide it. MSFC workshops bring hands-on abortion training right to your campus, giving student leaders the tools, support, and community they need to build a future where every patient can access safe, compassionate care. 💜

Birth control is health care. It’s safety, opportunity, and choice—and it’s under attack. This #ThxBirthControl Day, we’re fighting against misinformation and uplifting the truth: contraception changes lives! 📷: @powertodecide.bsky.social

Banning abortion will only stop safe abortions, which puts ALL pregnant people at risk. Everyone deserves safe, legal, compassionate abortion care and the freedom to make decisions about their own bodies and futures. 💜

Everyone deserves access to the essential resources needed to build the life they choose, AND shouldn’t have to pick between paying bills and accessing essential reproductive health care.

When doctors can’t provide abortion care, patients suffer. 🩺 The next generation of abortion care providers needs the opportunity to learn all aspects to learn all aspects of reproductive health and offer compassionate, quality, and evidence-based care wherever they practice.⁠

Abortion is a human right, not a debate. 💙 Medical students and residents: Get family planning education and abortion training now: msfc.org/medical-stud... #AbortionAccess
